From the above table, SIMX100 provides up to 11 configuration methods, listing the two most important indicators for measuring the reader module: sensitivity and multi-tag reading speed. There is a trade-off between sensitivity and multi-tag speed. When the sensitivity is better, the reading speed rate of tags is lower. Between reading better and reading more, need to choose the appropriate mode based on customer application needs. Another thing to note is that when multiple readers work at the same time, there will be interference. Although a smaller TARI speeds up the communication connection with the tag, it will increase the bandwidth of the emission channel, which is easier to interfere with other readers. Higher BLF of the tag will increase the speed of the tag’s reverse transmission signal. The tag return signal will fall in the adjacent channel. When other readers happen to be working in this channel, the reader is likely to

Inventory Mode Parameters
For different application scenarios, SIMX100 provides multiple working modes. Except for the temperature-controlled multi-tag inventory mode, other function are automatically completed by the reader module. This not only saves the command interaction time between the host and the reader module, but the excellent processing algorithm also greatly enhances the application adaptability of the product.

Application Description
Power-on Boot and IO Interface
After the module is powered on, it takes 100ms to initialize. Do not pull the reset pin low during this time, and the reader module will not respond to the received commands.
Power-on boot time The NRST power-on reset release time is less than 3ms. After the module is powered on, pulling the NRST level low will cause the MCU of the internal module to restart. The NRST in the module has been connected to a 100K pull-up resistor. If the module is powered on, the low-level holding time that triggers the reset needs to be greater than 2ms. When reset occurs, the actual waiting time for reset needs to be greater than 110ms.
Reset waiting time The response time is measured by the time difference between sending the GPIO command and the response. The command action time set by OUT1 and OUT2 is greater than 78us (not including command time). IN1, IN2 set command action time is greater than 88us (not including command time).

It is recommended to use a 22-100uF tantalum capacitor for the VCC power input. If the size is limited, it can be changed to a small-sized ceramic capacitor, and at least a 0.1uF and a 100pF ceramic capacitor are connected in parallel. When inventory tag, the power magnifier inside the module will be turned on and off frequently, which will cause the power supply voltage at the input end of the module to fluctuate accordingly. Add large-capacity capacitors can reduce the fluctuation amplitude of these voltages and filter out the interference of low-frequency signals, but it will also cause large instantaneous currents. According to the driving capability of the module power supply circuit, select an appropriate large-capacity decoupling capacitor. The 0.1uF and 100pF capacitors can be used to filter out the power supply ripple in the high-frequency band. Because the interference signal in the high-frequency band, especially the interference signal in the working frequency band, will enter the module, it will degrade the module’s tag reading performance. And the addition of ceramic capacitors It can also prevent high-frequency signals generated when the module is working from passing through the power path and interfering with other circuit systems. Due to the large operating current of the module, the cable connecting the module must be thick enough, otherwise there will be an excessive voltage difference at both ends of the connecting cable, which will make the module unable to work properly; too thin connecting cables are also more likely to produce radiated interference signals. If the power input is a DC-DC conversion circuit, it is best to choose a power conversion chip with a switching frequency exceeding 1.5MHz to avoid interference with the weak signal returned by the tag.
Communication Serial Port
The reader module adapts a 3.3V UART serial port for data communication. The data format is configured as 1 bit start, 8 bits data, 1 bit stop, and no check bit (8N1). During serial communication, the signal frequency aligns closely with the Backscatter Link Frequency (BLF) from tags, potentially causing interference with the RF chip module’s reception. To mitigate this, if serial PCB traces are lengthy, consider placing them in inner PCB layers or on the layer opposite to the antenna. Additionally, include series-matching resistors and parallel

capacitors to ground to minimize signal ringing. For inter-board connections, route lines close to the ground.
The baud rate of the serial port needs to meet the transmission rate requirements of the module for uploading tag data. When inventory large number of tags, the recommended baud rate is as shown in the following table:

Antenna Port
Mismatch between the module and antenna can lead to excessive signal reflection from the antenna to the reader module, causing a degradation in receiver sensitivity. It is recommended to maintain an antenna VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio) below 1.5. In applications requiring rapid reading of a large number of tags, especially when using modules based on the E710 chip, a high antenna VSWR that degrades receiver sensitivity can significantly increase the time required for reading all tags. For applications with fewer tags at closer distances, choosing modules based on the E510 or E310 may be more suitable. Since there is no RF isolator or RF circulator used between the power amplifier chip in the module

SIMx100
and the antenna, mismatches between the power amplifier chip and the antenna can affect linearity and conversion efficiency. The former can result in changes in transmission performance, such as reduced power output, radiation of spurious signals, and non-compliance with local radio regulations regarding spectrum masks. The latter can increase the module’s power consumption, operating temperature, and reduce its lifespan. In the worst-case scenario, the power amplifier chip may operate in an unstable region due to mismatches, leading to self-excitation, which can easily damage the power amplifier chip. To ensure optimal module performance and stability, it is recommended to install the antenna in the application environment and use testing software to measure the VSWR after connecting the antenna. The VSWR should ideally be below 1.5.
Heat Dissipation
SIMx100 module generates significant heat during fast mode operation, and its built-in aluminum alloy casing may not provide adequate heat dissipation. To ensure effective heat conduction, it is necessary to mount the module on a larger metal heat sink. Additionally, thermal conductive silicone grease or compound should be applied at the contact points between the module and the heat sink. To protect the module from overheating, it will automatically cease tag inventory when the detected temperature reaches 90°C. In such cases, you will need to resend the inventory command to resume tag inventory.

This module is stand-alone modular. If the end product will involve the Multiple simultaneously transmitting condition or different operational conditions for a stand-alone modular transmitter in a host, host manufacturer have to consult with module manufacturer for the installation method in end system. According to the KDB 996369 D02 Q&A Q12, that a host manufacture only needs to do an evaluation (i.e., no C2PC required when no emission exceeds the limit of any individual device (including unintentional radiators) as a composite. The host manufacturer must fix any failure.
